One UI 9
Galaxy AI
Enhanced Now nudge
Now nudge provides helpful suggestions in more places throughout your Galaxy experience. In addition to the keyboard, suggestions will now appear in conversation notifications and in a floating button in the bottom right corner of the screen. There are also several new types of suggestions, like entering reservation details or addresses and saving places in Google Maps.
Focus on someone important
My FanCam lets you select a person in a video and follow them automatically while cropping out the rest of the video.
Interpreter keeps your conversation in front of you
In conversation mode, you can scroll through the whole conversation while you’re still talking.
See useful information during calls
See relevant events and other information related to your current call on the call screen.
Productivity and multitasking
More customizable quick panel
You can now rearrange and customize the controls in your quick panel even more than before. You can change the size of the brightness and volume sliders as well as the media player. You can also separate the sound mode button from the volume slider.
Privacy, security, and device protection
Warranty and care
The new Warranty and care menu in settings lets you check your warranty information and access diagnostic checks and useful information for keeping your Galaxy in top condition.
Lock down your phone quickly
It’s now easier to securely lock your phone in a hurry. Just press and hold the Volume down and Side buttons at the same time or tap the Power button in the quick panel. This prevents biometrics from being used the next time you unlock your phone.
Location access transparency
Stay on top of your location privacy. A blue indicator will appear at the top of the screen when an app accesses your location. Tap the indicator in the quick panel to see which app it is.
Stronger security and privacy protection
Alerts will appear in your Now brief to let you know about risks from malware, apps from unknown sources, unnecessary permissions, and other issues that may put your security and privacy at risk. Apps that have been identified as malicious or vulnerable will be blocked from opening until you make a decision about whether to remove them.
AI privacy alerts
Get help protecting your personal data. AI will monitor how apps use permissions and notify you about unnecessary access to your personal data.
